The Bulgarian Council of ministers granted 100 thousand leva more for excavations in the Ancient city Heraclea Sintica near the town of Petrich. The news was announced by the prime-minister Boyko Borissov.

The prime-minister encouraged the mayor of the town – Dimitar Brachkov – to continue the field-works and constructions near the close village Rupite.

A year ago the Council of ministers granted 100 thousand leva and later – in May 2019 – the government granted other 1.4 million leva for reconstruction and rehabilitation of the road from Rupite to Heraclea Sintica.
